Welcome

The BridgeBuilders project is dedicated to more collaboration. We encourage everyone working in healthcare, especially those in leadership positions, to reach out and cross organisational boundaries.

BridgeBuilders is about connecting people with different backgrounds, building trust and facilitating relationships – key components of successful collaboration – so that our future leaders will be able to lead together.

“We must build bridges across our differences to pursue the common good.” ~ Debbie Rigby, Pharmacist

On our Blog and Podcast we discuss a variety of topics related to collaboration with wonderful and passionate guests including many of our healthcare and thought leaders.

BridgeBuilders has no political agenda. There is no affiliation with existing organisations or groups. We receive no funding and have no commercial interests.

Our focus is on finding common ground and supporting shared goals, acknowledging our diversity at the same time – it’s about the inspiring causes that get us out of bed in the morning.

“When one feels disconnected, the rational thing to do is to reconnect. However, people don’t often do this. They often fall into the trap of withdrawing or criticising, which makes the disconnection worse. Be careful of this trap.

“For our leaders to be able to work better together via their organisations, they must be able to relate to each other as individuals. That is difficult when they go into meetings as representatives of specific organisations. Being able to meet each other on neutral ground is a very good thing.
